Solid Rustic Timber

To make these rustic block support shelves we select top quality, unsorted, kiln-dried pine. Each shelf is cut to size and finished in our signature rustic style. This leaves in lots of natural timber characteristics and features. Mother Nature’s own stamp of approval.

In this style you can expect to find splits, cracks, knots, shakes, waney edges, bows and twists along with machine marks in keeping with the rustic style. These are the qualities that set our shelving apart from the rest. And due to the nature of solid wood every shelf will be different. Truly unique. One of a kind. Rustic timber. Please note that placing your item above or near to a heat source can cause movement within the timber which may exaggerate these natural features.

All sizes and weights given are approximate. As we only use natural, solid timber, measurements can change slightly from one piece to another.

6 Fine Wax Finish Colours

To finish these chunky wood shelves we use your choice of one of our supreme wax polishes. The finish is professionally applied with the highest attention to detail. And as the wax soaks into the different grains and features it enhances their look and brings them to life. The colours are:

Walnut

Teak

Gothic

Light Oak

Medium Oak

Rustic Pine

When viewing on screen colours can look different from one screen to another. This makes it less reliable than seeing the real finished timber before your own eyes. Because you want the perfect colour for your home these finishes are available to purchase as small samples.

These block support shelves come supplied with all the fixings you need. The keyhole brackets are suitable for all wall types, however we supply the bolts suitable for solid walls only. We would always recommend consulting with a DIY professional or builder before purchasing to discuss fitting to alternative wall types, as this may require specialist fixings.

Timber Full Of Unique Rustic Feature

These rustic shelves are handcrafted from the very best quality solid pine timber. Also known as European Redwood. The grade of timber is known as unsorted, or premium grade. This is what is left over after all the lesser quality grades have been removed (or sorted). It is also a kiln-dried timber. This ensures the best possible finish and less chance of further movement.

Handmade In Our Signature Rustic Style

Solid wood contains loads of beautiful rustic character. And we just love it. That’s why we make our shelves to show it off. In each piece of timber you can find features such as knots, cracks, splits, twists, bows and shakes, along with sanding marks in keeping with the rustic style. All being different and unique from one piece to another. Placing your shelf above a heat source can cause movement within the timber which may exaggerate these natural features, particularly twists and bows.

But that’s not it. The main feature is the stunning wood grain running through the timber. Pale creamy yellow sapwood contrasts beautifully with the darker reddish-brown heartwood. And the growth rings are plain to see on the ends.

Hand Finished In Supreme Wax Polish

Because these features are what really define our shelves we like to make them stand out even more. To do this we use a wax finish. This is carefully applied to the timber in our workshop, enhancing all the natural features and wood grain.

Wax not only makes the timber look good, but it is also very durable. You can easily wipe away spillages. And cleaning is very simple. Just wipe with a clean cloth and warm water then leave to dry. But never use harsh chemical cleaners.

Future Maintenance With Wax Care Packs

We have wax care packs available to keep your shelves looking their best. These comprise of a small tin of wax, a piece of sandpaper and a cloth for application. They are a great to use every few months to make the shelf look brand new all the time.

They’re also brilliant for fixing damage. A small amount of wax will fix a scratch. Or bigger damage can be fixed with a quick rub of the sand paper. Then use the wax to cover any bare timber and buff away. Order your wax care pack here.

Hidden Keyhole Brackets

Using our keyhole fixings these mantel shelves are very simple to fit to your wall and takes no time at all. The keyhole brackets are suitable for all wall types, however we supply the bolts suitable for solid walls only. We would always recommend consulting with a DIY professional or builder before purchasing to discuss fitting to alternative wall types, as this may require specialist fixings.

Fitting Your Floating Shelf

Full instructions are included, but here is a quick guide:

Draw a pencil line on the wall where you would like to position the shelf.

Mark the centre point of the shelf on the line and then measure the distance between the fixings on the back of the shelf.

Transfer these measurements to the wall, using the marked centre point.

Drill the holes, insert the wall plugs and screw in the screws, leaving the heads sticking out enough to hang the shelf on.

Hang the shelf..

Its that simple, but if you need any more help check out our video walkthrough below. Please note that the keyhole shape may be different on your shelf, however the fitting instructions are the same:
